Güngördü: We will publish the books

Girne Mayor Nidai Güngördü said that Osman Türkay, who was born in Ozanköy, was nominated for the Nobel award, the most important literary prize in the world, and that he promoted Cyprus and Cypriots together with Ozanköy. Nidai Güngördü stated that a memorial was erected in the village where Osman Türkay, who is known as the space poet, lived and he will be remembered by future generations by meeting with the family and muhtarlik in the village.

A museum must be made available for the transfer of Osman Turkay’s memorabilia, the Mayor said that they will help in this regard. Güngördü also noted that they were ready to publish Osman Türkay’s books.
